Doctor Darling is rarely surprised by strange behaviour until the night his ex-lover dressed as Peter Pan flies in on a mission of revenge. It’s a tricky situation, but perhaps even more difficult for Sadie, as she tries to work out what happens next from best theatrical principles, with both her characters in revolt against her. Dark comedy, running time time 50 mins.

Can theatre ever be a platform for protest? A meta-theatrical look at the obscenity of war. As Shaw said, life does not cease to be funny when people die any more than it ceases to be serious when people laugh.
